Andorran prog metallers Persefone have recently announced the upcoming release of their fifth album, Aathma. Ahead of the album dropping on the 24th of February, the band have released their first song video from Aathma, an animated video for the 7-minute tune "Prison Skin".




On a Facebook post to announce the video, Persefone stated: "It's been some time since we finished and mixed the album. Although we couldn't wait to share this music with everyone, some steps have to be followed before the release. The wait is almost over. During this time we have had the chance to witness a highly appreciated feedback from media and now we are ready to finally show you the first single from Aathma. The single 'Prison Skin' is the first full track of the album and makes a musical statement about how the album will develop musically and sets the mood for the lyrical concept. It was supposed to be a lyric video in the beginning, but the people behind this creation did such a great job that we decided to go with just the animation part. But please, make sure you read the lyrics as you listen to the music, because one part meets the other to bring this concept to live. Thanks for the patience, love and support."

Aathma, mixed and mastered by Jens Bogren, will be released worldwide on the 28th of February 2017 through ViciSolum Records, with a European tour in support of the album throughout April. What do you think about the new song?
